foods. >> just like eating a high-fat diet can increase your levels of cholesterol, eating sugar can also affect the same lipids. >> we are able to see it with higher consumption with the sweeteners. >> reporter: these co-authors studied u.s. government nutrition labels in more than 6,000 adult men and women from 1999 through 2006. they were divided into five group as cording to the amount of added sugar and caloric sweeteners consumed daily. >> the highest consuming group consumed 46 teaspoons of added sugar. the lowest had on average 3 teaspoons. >> reporter: here's what 46 teaspoons of sugar looks like. >> we found that people who consume more added sugar are more likely to have high cardio vascular disease risk factors. >> reporter: the study appears in this week's jama.

>> one of the things that the study was helpful to show is that the amount of added sugar as it increases, the triglycerides goes up and hdl goes down. hdl levels were 20% lower in those who consumed the least halt. and that's the good cholesterol so you want high levels. it would be important for long- term hel tth to look at how hutch added sugar you are getting and finding ways to reduce that. >> reporter: one way is to read nutrition labels. here were to bowls of similar servings. each have two servings. the one on the left has 6 teaspoons of added sugars, the one on the right, 2 teaspoons. >> we tbheed to pay attention to the amount of caloric sweeteners and added sugars in the foods we eat eat. free trees. that was the give away being offered up today outside any supermarket in rowland park. public service for tree

baltimore along with eddies and other community service groups teamed up with several varieties of young tree saplings for free. it's all an effort to improve the tree canopy in baltimore which can provide it to the residents. >> baltimore has a lot of asphalt and with that comes a lot of heat. what you want to do is you want to use less energy to cool down your house or just your neighborhood, and trees are great at that. >> the city needs more trees. and we have space for them. it's good for the city environment and good for our personal health. it's good for aesthetics. and it's free. >> reporter: the group just completed a tree planting at mergen thawler high school. and with spring in the air, people of course are out planting flowers and enjoy planting outdoors.

a little peace and quiet but a nuisance that's popping up may stink up your plans. >> have you seen them? >> the sign says they are welcome in baltimore city. they are also in baltimore county. they are getting shade on the porch and they are playing at your neighborhood playground. >> what? oh, gee, don't ask me to say that. hey, i think i see one. no, that's a robin. is that one? i guess not. what do the professionals call them? >> stink bugs! >> reporter: i decided to take this a little bit serious. i've got my 1001 ways to kill pests around the house by dr. batter, my trustee steel pipe, my machete. we're going rabbit hunting. stinky hunting. hey there's one on the screen. these armor plated bugs are a nuisance. they're all over the place. how do you get rid of them?

>> by killing them with a rock. >> they can put on a latex glove, pick up the bug and put it into soapy water. >> reporter: what? i don't think so. >> people that have no problem will just squish it and the stink will be all over their hands. >> reporter: you know, i had to go get heavy duty hardware for these armor plated stinkies. and i haven't had good luck. leave it to the professionals. i'm adam when itlock, abc 2 news. maybe some of this cooler weather will keep the stink bugs away from us. >> bet ver ventilated jeans there. >> but he's giving the stink bugs free passage. >> yeah. it's obviously a war against those bugs. joce, have i to say this is a decent april day.

really getting into more of a wet, showery kind of pattern there later this week. >> i know. some of us have big outdoor plans. >> and you are ruining them. >> hit or miss. it's not like a deluge coming. in april you never know. >> let's take a look outside right now. nice day. it's been clouding up just a little bit, but we've got 66 degrees, though. that's not bad. humidity 33%. that's not bad. winds calm. that's not bad, either. all in all, a good weather report this afternoon. beautiful day earlier today. you see those sunny skies do give way to generally cloudy conditions later into the afternoon at least downtown but for the most part, things are not too bad. want to show you a look at the pollen count today. mold spores all in the low category. we've got a high count on the tree pollen, maple, oak, ash and elm the dominant pollen. if you are suffering right now, those are the culprits. temperature-wise, mid-60s

across the state. 66 out at hagerstown. a little cooler out in far western maryland. they under the low 70s into virginia and richmond right now. this is all seasonable and typical stuff for the latter part of april. a little spoiled there earlier this month with thele 0s and 9 -- the 80s and 90s. it will bring increasing cloud cover tomorrow right now. our band of cloud cover is breaking up. we've got more coming out of the south and west. this will likely bring rain tomorrow after nan and tomorrow evening. not a lot of rain. this storm is not that impressive. it is a relatively large storm but doesn't look like a lot of punch. the showers will not hold together all that well tomorrow evening. we will see scattered showers. cooler stuff north of us, but it's where we're watching that's south and west of us as this line of showers comes out of the virginia area into maryland tomorrow afternoon. this is 5:00. could douse our beltway here with some showers around that peak evening commute.

you know just a few rain drops will cause major headaches. this looks like it will fizzle out after sun schett tomorrow evening. and then maybe just a patch or two of drizzle at times thursday but it looks like partly cloudy skies. i think most of thursday will be dry, especially later in the day. that will set the stage for the day friday around here. tonight 47, generally cloudy and mild. into the day mild. tomorrow mild and then the chance for showers developing. high temperature into the mid- 60s. tomorrow night 45, scattered rain showers a good bet. but they taper off tomorrow night. that will leave us with a relatively drew scenario thursday. dry thursday late 68 and back up around 70 on friday with plenty of sunshine. enjoy that dry spot late thursday into friday because the chance of showers is back over the weekend. now with a look ahead at 6:00 tonight. i'm kelly swoope. a baltimore city cop pulls out his gun inside a bar.
